Chlorine-free and climate-neutral – For the benefi t of the environment
In line with our strong commitment to the responsible management of natural resources, this Annual
Report has been produced using chlorine-free materials and climate-friendly production processes.
We support the goals of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), which was founded in 1993 to promote
the environmentally appropriate, socially bene cial and economically viable management of the world’s
forests. Consequently, all the paper used in this Annual Report comes from recycled materials or con-
trolled sources such as sustainable forests. The mill in which the paper was produced is certi ed in accor-
dance with ISO 14001 and EMAS environmental guidelines. The pulps used are totally chlorine-free and
were partly bleached without the use of chlorine gas. The inks used in the printing process were made
from renewable raw materials.
In addition, the CO2 emissions generated during paper and ink production and in the printing process
were measured and subsequently neutralized by the purchase and retirement of high-quality emission
reduction certi cates.
